Commenting upon the figures, Dr. carp said
to Journal reporter yesterday: ''The small
death-rate is especially to be noted in these
three diseases These statistics unusual,
and in many instances it Is quite possible that
the disease was of mild character, yet the
other hand the spread of the infection would be
great. It therefore demonstrates the careful
work of the medical attendants and sanitary Off
The epidemic of diphtheria, it will be
ticed, is larger in its death rate during the first
half of the year 1887 than in 1886. This
easily be accounted for in this way:
The epidemic of malignant dphtheria
and progressed during the coolest weather and
yet taking all this into consideration the rate is
low compared TO other cities. An the other
hand in 1886. only seven deaths took place when
1872 cases were reported, and still better during
the first half of 1855. with 237, cases only eight
deaths. As far the measIe epidemic is
cerned, that is, the red measles not the mild,
innoffensive rash known German measles,
there were ffty-three deaths out of 2,037 cases
reported. With such figures these which
demonstrate facts and not fancy, the people of
Indianapolis should congratulate themselves
that in epidemic of these diseases which gives
good cause for alarm, they are more fortunate
than most all other cities"

THE PRESIDENTS VISIT.
Terre Haute Sets Up Claim that the Indian.
apoIis Committee Is Not Telling the Truth.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
TERRE HAUTE, Sept. 17-There is very Bit
ter feeling in Terre Haute toward the Indianap-
oils committee arrangements for the recep-
ton of Mr.. Cleveland. Governor Gray comes
in for good share of the imprecations. for aid<
ing and abesting the plot to make it appear that
the President will not reach Terre Haute until
after darkness has set in, whereas all persons
who have seen the Presiden reg arding the Terre
Haute visit have been told by him that he
particularly wanted to the city, which he
had been informed "a beautiful place." In
deed, the callers the White House have been
amazed at the degree of interest he has shown
in the Prairie City, and there has been much
speculation as 70 the cause of all this favor.
There are persons here who think the President
heard from Terre Haute often during the
Democratic fight on Lambard Hanlon that no.
naturally enough wants to see the town that
contains many vigorous 'kickers," but, be
that as 1t may, all parties and factions interest
ed in having big crowd here the day of the
Presidents visit are indignant that the Indian
apols committee and the Governor should
tions that the President would not
leave Indianapolis until p NJ, which would
bring him hero as the shades of night are falling
and make it late for the returning excursion
trains. The indignation knows bounds when
it is remembered that the President has said
that he wants to be here by o'clock. 1t is also
known here that the Vandalia special train will
leave Indianapolis not later than o'clock. Tho
Indian apollo committee has also announced that
Senator Voorhees, will ride in one of the two
carriages, and Col. r. w. Thompson's name has
been freely used in connection with the receps
ton there, whereas neither gentle
man has been consulted. AS Coli
ouel Thompson said, they expect to be-
at homo here to receive the President. 1t is safe
say to the Indianapolis committee that upless
it wants to lay itself liable to tine accusation Of
promising bigger show than it can give to the
people. it were better that couple OF hours of
the programme be left off, because that train
will leave at least hour earlier than o'clock.

THE Philadelphia North American of the
18th inst printed fac-simile of the first
printed copy of the Constitution of the United
States There had been considerable mystery
about the proceedings of the convention which
framed the Constitution, and its publication
in "The Pennsylvania Packet and Daily Ad-
vertiser" of Sept. 10, 1857, was the first
authentic disclosure of the completed work of
the convention. The Daily Advertiser was
the predecessor and ineal ancestor of the
North American which, in thus reprinting the
first edition of the Constitution really copied
it it from its own files of one hundred years
ago. No other newspaper in the United States
could do this. The fac-simile is an exact repro
duction Of the Typography of the last century.
and with its quaint appearance makes an in
